New York Times reporter really wishes she held on to notes from disputed Elizabeth Holmes interview
You Can See Everything's star spends the film arguing that the Gray Lady misquoted her. There's no proof on the other end, either.
The New York Times reporter Elizabeth Holmes, who accused her fellow journalist of misquoting her in the documentary "You Can See Everything," is now speaking out to defend herself and the accuracy of her reporting. In a 2023 New York Times profile, Holmes claimed that the reporter misquoted her, stating, "They’re not playing me.
They’re playing a character I created," in reference to actors portraying her in film and TV projects, including Amanda Seyfried in "The Dropout." Holmes told the documentary filmmaker Nathan Fielder that she actually said, "They’re playing a character ‘they’ created." Fielder became obsessed with this quote, which haunted the rest of the film.
Holmes' editor confirmed the quote with her in 2023 and believed the matter was resolved. However, the quote resurfaced years later, leading Holmes to express her regret for not keeping the notebook with the highlighted and documented quote.
